Working more than 45 hours a week is bad for the heart, says study
jairo bouer
____ In other words, individuals who worked 55 or more hours over a decade had a 16% higher risk of cardiovascular disease. And, among those who followed a journey of 60 hours or more, for the same period, the risk was 35% higher.
____ The study took into account events such as angina, coronary heart disease, heart failure, heart attack, stroke, and high blood pressure. The risk of these occurrences, in the population studied, was 43% and did not vary much between those who worked between 40 and 45 hours. But beyond that period, the risk increased about 1% every hour more.
____ The results were published in the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine and published in the British newspaper Daily Mail.
____ Working more than 45 hours a week over a decade increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. For those who work full-time, this propensity increases with each additional hour worked, according to researchers at the University of Texas, in the United States.
____ They analyzed data from more than 1,900 participants in a long-term study on health and work. All had been employed for at least ten years. The team found that among those working full-time, the risk is significantly higher for those who work beyond the 40-45 hour-week range.
